Slamming Narendra Modi for making rhetorical speeches on every given occasion, Union Minister Sachin Pilot said that the Gujarat CM is intoxicated with prime ministerial ambitions and is too self-obsessed to see “right from wrong”.

The Corporate Affairs Minister also accused the BJP leader of creating a facade of development and governance. “However, people of India have moved beyond these issues and they have become much smarter today. India is a new country with a much more robust youth population and, middle class who want more colleges than some mandir or masjid,” the young Congress leader said.

“I think Modi is self-obsessed to such a point where he is not been able to see right from wrong and that often happens when a person is intoxicated with the obsession of becoming a potential prime ministerial candidate,” Pilot said in an interview.
